Difference between revisions of "Meetings: User Area"

Revision as of 17:39, 10 June 2019

The Users Area, in the upper left corner of your Meetings session, has been updated and simplified.

What can the instructor/presenter see in the Users Area?
- Whenever a student enters the Meeting, a round icon will appear to the left of their name in the Users area.
- Usually beside the presenter, a square icon will display to the left of their name, as shown in the image below.

In the lower right corner of the Users area, you can click on either the "smiley face" icon (formerly a hand icon), to display your mood, or instructors can click on the Settings icon (it looks like a wheel):
- At any time, the presenter can click on the Settings icon to clear the status icons that participants have chosen.
In Settings, the presenter can Mute all users, but it is preferable to Mute all users except the Presenter!
- Presenters can Lock Viewers from using different devices (microphone/webcam), lock layouts, and lock Public and Private Chat.
  - Note: Don't lock viewers from using the Public Chat if they don't have a microphone, they won't be able to communicate with you!
- Also, in the Settings area, presenters can click on Breakout Rooms to divide students into groups, for a time limit.
